Berry delicious oatmeal

The pies for this week (yes, two, there's that much fruit about this time of year) are Apricot-Blueberry, straight out of Ken's incredible book. One or both may find itself involved in chariable fundraising, I'll keep you posted.

However, an earlier recipe involved using less than a full can of sweetened condensed milk, and we've got a lot of berries on had. Following this blog's pattern of using pie leftovers for breakfast, here goes:

Berry Delicious Oatmeal:

Ingredients:

3 Cups water
1.5 Cups "traditional" oatmeal
.5 Cups black raspberries
.5 Cups blueberries
.25 Cup (I think) sweetened condensed milk

Procedure:

Bring the water to a rolling boil in a medium saucepan. Place the can of milk next to the burner, this will make it easier to pour later.

Slowly add the oats, stirring continuously.

Reduce heat, watching for boil-over.

After a couple minutes, pour in the milk and stir.

When the oats have about 1min to go, add the berries and stir.

Serve warm.
